DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Iowa physician groups are urging Gov. Kim Reynolds to order the public to wear masks as cases continue to rise.
The Des Moines Register reports that the Iowa Medical Society and 14 other health-professional groups said Monday in a letter to the governor that "widespread use of cloth masks in public settings will dramatically slow the spread of COVID-19 and save lives."
The Republican governor has encouraged Iowans to "mask up," but she has rebuffed calls to join more than half of other states in requiring it.
